She's been designing her own knits for something like 30 years and I guess that's the way she approaches her designs. Which is cool, at least it is different and makes her stand out among the crowd. <br /><br />I will let you know re the Vogue reference book. I like the way they do their illustrations, though. I bought a different knitting reference a while ago (I forget the name now) that is just god-awful, I totally hate it. So anything is better than that right now! <br /><br />btw, when do you want to start our kitty hat-along? My yarn is wound and waiting whenever you are ready. =)Adriennehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17677671017557368426noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7918902.post-1095701268309652152004-09-20T12:27:00.000-05:002004-09-20T12:27:00.000-05:00YAY! It's always fun to find a new LYS. How do you...YAY! It's always fun to find a new LYS. How do you find that Vogue Quick Reference book? I was thinking of getting it too, but have heard mixed reviews of it.<br /><br />It's neat that Aldrich (why is it that I immediately think of chemicals when I hear that name? :P) organizes things by colour, but I also think that's going to get confusing soon. Not that I know a lot about running a yarn store, but I get the impression that a lot of people might be looking for a particular brand of yarn, making that kind of set-up a tad more difficult. But I guess that's what the store owner is there for. *shrug*<br /><br />I'm counting down the days until the Knit Wit book party! I'm so excited!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15877013222075908943noreply@blogger.com
